1 The Spirit of Immanuel A u g u s t Now there are varieties of Gifts, but the same Spirit. 1 Corinthians 12:4 Immanuel Lutheran Church Worship Services Sundays, 10:00 am Sunday School 9:00 am for Pre-school through High School Adult Bible Study Weekly Fellowship Choir and Chimes Prayer Chain immanuelcolfax@hotmail.com Pastor Tom Krieger Interim Minister tomkrieger63@gmail.com Council President Dan Harms Danielharms1978@yahoo.com Church Secretary Cindy Wilson ckwilson1983@gmail.com We have been truly blessed in the history of Immanuel to have so many devoted mothers and fathers willing to give of their time and talents for our Sunday School programs. As we will soon be planning for another school year in the coming weeks, this article seemed appropriate for those who ever wondered why we have Sunday School programs. Sunday school s origins Sunday school began in England as early as Better known is Robert Raikes work in Gloucester 30 years later. Concerned about poor children who worked in factories six days a week and often turned to crime, he offered classes on the only day kids were free. Soon various organizations offered a loose network of such Sunday schools, which taught basic reading and writing, using the Bible as a text. Ten years later, Samuel Slater started the first U.S. Sunday school in his Rhode Island textile mills. By the mid-1800s, Sunday school attendance was an almost-universal childhood experience. As society became more secular and public education was mandated by the 1870s, Sunday schools focused on spiritual practices: prayers, hymns, catechism knowledge and Scripture memorization. Well into the 20th century, Sunday school served as the church s main outreach tool. Many adults fondly remember their teachers and lessons, and Sunday school continues to play a significant part in faith development. From the NewsletterNewsletter, August 2017 And for those who have been or ever will be a college student... This humorous illustration of how not to get along at college also demonstrates Jesus teaching in Matthew 7:3-5. A young man from Scotland went to study at an English university. A month into the school year, his mother visited and asked how he liked living in the dorm. It s awful! he exclaimed. The fellow in the room next door bangs his head on the wall constantly, and the one on the other side screams all day. How do you stand it? his mother asked in amazement. Oh, I ignore them, her son replied. I just sit here quietly, playing my bagpipes.

3 From the Pastor Immanuel Lutheran Church Council has given Pastor Tom it s blessing to talk to the congregation about who is welcome to receive communion. Martin Luther wrote, Therefore let every household remember that it is their duty, by God s injunction and command, to teach or have taught to their children the things they ought to know. Since they are baptized and received into the Christian church, they should also enjoy this fellowship of the sacrament [of the altar] so that they may serve us and be useful. For they must all help us to believe, to love, to pray, and to fight the devil. 1 Only those who are confirmed may receive communion at Immanuel Lutheran Church. 15% of ELCA congregations still required that in 1990, down to 11% by The majority of ELCA congregations welcome people to receive earlier. I share with you reason to reconsider our practice. We do not wait for our children to ask for food before we feed them; we do not wait for our children to seek an education before teaching them; we do not wait for our children to ask for baptism before celebrating the newness of life in Christ that is God s gift in baptism. 3 If the uninformed, unaware babe-inarms can be graced by God without any cognizant participation in the sacrament which is administered once and once only, upon what basis do we, the church, exclude participation in that regular sacrament which nurtures and sustains the baptismal covenant? 3 the essence of covenantal relationship is God s faithfulness and does not depend upon our faithfulness. 3 And therein lies the Lutheran theological integrity for celebrating the sacraments. It is God s faithfulness, God s grace. We are recipients. Grace is grace; undeserved, unconditional love. It is never dependent upon what we understand or do. It is a means of God s love come to we sinners who cannot share in it except that God offer it freely. Everything we do - faith active in works of love - is a grateful response to the grace we receive. But wouldn t we do well to understand it before receiving it? If receiving God s grace, if receiving the sacraments, requires our understanding, then what of those who develop dementia or alzheimer s, what about those with limited learning ability, what about you and I how well do we truly understand the mystery of what God is doing in this sacred meal? The early church offered communion to all the baptized. With good intention, education was - and should be - given about the sacrament, but contrary to our theology, that education became the requirement. What is required? Is it anything more than being a child of God in need of God s grace? Could a practice like that at Trinity Lutheran Church, Fairbury be an acceptable compromise? Their invitation is all are welcome to receive communion at TLC, regardless of age or understanding. The decision to include or exclude their children is up to each family. Immanuel Lutheran Church will gather to talk about this after worship August 27 1 The Large Catechism of Martin Luther (1529) part 5 on the Sacrament of the Altar, para # ELCA Department for Research and Evaluation. 3 Lutheran Partners, Nov/Dec Owning Our Sacramental Theology by Stephen Goodwin and Lewis Groce.
